A wonderful day was had by all at A Blooming Affair, held on Saturday 06 October. The weather was sunny and bright, the gardens were looking magnificent and the crafters and food stall holders displayed their wares with great aplomb! The SAORA is delighted to announce the winners of the raffle:

Once again, a most enjoyable evening was spent at the Alphen Hotel in Constantia, where Old Girls from the Cape Town area gathered together for a chat with school friends and a ‘catch-up’ on SAORA news. Murray Thomas, the Roedean (SA) Executive Head, and his wife, Joanne, joined the party to meet the Capetonians.

SAORA welcomed these Old Girls back to school when they took part in the varsity orientation talk that was part of the ‘Welcome to SAORA’ event held recently for the Matrics. The Old Girls spoke about their personal experiences at varsity and gave the Matrics an insight into varsity life.
